CAGI mission

The CAGI was founded in 1996 by the Confederation and the Republic and Canton of Geneva and is supported by more than 30 national and local, public and private entities.

The missions of the CAGI are : 

  1. To facilitate the settlement and integration of international newcomers and their families in Geneva.
  2. To offer assistance and advice to NGOs and, in collaboration with the relevant authorities, to process applications from NGOs wishing to establish themselves in the Lake Geneva region.
  3. To support the accommodation of delegates from developing countries to ensure their stay during their participation in conferences, training courses or working meetings.
  4. To promote exchanges between “International Geneva” and local community through events, cultural and leisure activities.
